Email Form to 3rd Party

S

sonicj

I presently have this link:

<a href="mailto: &subject=Please visit this link
&body=http://www.kantordiamond.com/D13200B.htm">Tell a Friend</a>

Depending on the version of Outlook or Outlook Express used it will
sometimes pop up with the correct subject and the link in the message. But I
have limited success based on versions and worse if not using either program.
Is there a way to have:
1. A link that opens a form
2. The desired link appears in the form
3. A third party email address can be entered
4. Click Send and the desired results are sent to the third party email?

I know I'm asking a lot. The desired effect if using Outlook 2002 can be
seen at http://kantordiamond.com/D13200B.htm and clicking Tell a Friend.
Thank you for any suggestions.

You link leads to a 404.

Would require the use of a server-side script that would capture the URL of the page the user
accessed the form from and to send the email. However you need to be careful as someone could use a
Email A Friend link to send spam from your site.
